" A mighty hand from an exhaustless Urn,
Pours forth the never-ending flood of years
Among tlie nations.
!l|HAT flood has borne us into the editorial chair, and we
^^ ^ have the pleasure of presenting to all friends of the M.
(S *^ •
A. C, the tenth annual volume of the Index.
We have endeavored to perpetuate all the valuable features of
former issues, and to introduce such new ones as seemed advisable.
We wish, not only to make the Index a full and exact catalogue, but
also to make it a reliable exponent of student life.
The publication of the Index is fast coming to be the anticipated
event of the Junior year, to all under-classmen. May each year add
new interest to the work. Let every volume be an advance, in sym-
metry and perfection, upon the preceding, and the Index will be
an honor both to the college and to the class publishing it.
The growth of the Index has been rapid, not only in size but in
quality. The first volume was published in 1869-70. This was a
thin pamphlet of twenty-eight pages, containing only the class com-
munications, the members of the college societies, and those of the four
classes. It was entirely lacking in all that miscellaneous matter,
which forms such a prominent part of later numbers.
Time has marked out its usual changes during the year, but hap-
pily most of these have been to our own advantage. We have had
a live head, whose invigorating influence has been felt by college and
student. Order and neatness have sprung into life, the grass grows
greener and the flower takes on a more delicate tint now that its
lover is near. Ay, and even we cannot fail to catch the inspiration
and love the music of the flowers. Students ! we can well be proud
of our Prex, and in every mental, moral and natural field, strive by

our faithfulness to win the esteem of him, whose worth is felt in
other lands than our own.
Our college has lost this year the services of Dr. Packard, "Lec-
turer upon Useful and Injurious Insects," the Doctor having been
called to anew field of labor. We feel the loss keenly as the oppor-
tunity of hearing his lectures was one of the privileges of the Junior
year. It is earnestly to be hoped that the Trustees will soon fill his
place, although they cannot make it good. After glancing at the
amount of damage annually wrought on a few farm crops only, by the
ravages of such insects as the potato beetle, phylloxera, the grasshop-
per and the cabbage fly, whicli cause an annual loss of tens of mil-
lions of dollars, no one in the Commonwealth is able to say that the
study of the habits of these insects, and of the means of protecting
ourselves from their attacks, is not of the most vital importance in
the education of the " embryo farmer."
Lieutenant Totten left college at the ^ end of the Summer term,
and is now with his regiment on the " Plains." He was an officer
who thoroughly understood his duties, and one who was ever on the
alert to execute thgm in a manner most beneficial to the interests of
the college. One does not have to search far to discover improve-
ments introduced by him in and around college. Whatever he
touched seemed instinctively to drop into mathematical form and ar-
rangement. Most flattering to himself were the changes that he
introduced in the dress and appearance of the cadets. No, military
discipline and study is one of the most essential parts of the educa-
tion gained at the M. A. C.
No successor having been appointed by the Government at the
commencement of the Fall term, the Faculty secured the services of
Captain Smith. He adopted a most excellent practice by requiring
all upper classmen to act as squad drill masters of the Freshmen.
By this course those men that assist in the drill will be made more
careful and reserved in their conduct, and far better fitted to per-
form their duties in the Battalion. Captain Smith was subsequent-
ly relieved by Lieutenant Charles Morris, detailed for this
place by the President of the United States. Commandant Morris
has varied somewhat from the methods of Lieut. Totten, decreas-

ing the number of companies and bringing the entire organization
into as simple and compact form as possible.
The Editors would here express their regret that no more time is
devoted to the study of the mental sciences. We most cordially
indorse the words of the Professor of those sciences, that the su-
preme object of the Agricultural College is to " make farmers, men"
in every sense of the word. Popular opinion has complained that
such studies ought not to be in the curriculum of an agricultural
college, that it would be of no after use to the graduates. We, as
students, indignantly reject such comments, and demand of the col-
lege that facilities for such study be enlarged, rather than con-
tracted. Most of us are from the farms, we are acquainted with the
practical side of agriculture, we want to study the theory here, to
gain a liberal education. If the design of the institution was to
turn out ploiigh -joggers, it has been a costly experiment. That class
of farmers is in the majority already. Nothing further is required
to fit a young man for that position than horny hands and an empty
head. But a progressive farmer has other things to become ac-
quainted with. He mui3t not only be versed in physical philoso-
phy, but, as he is dealing all the time with other men, buying and
selling, he must understand human nature; and what is that but a
department of mental or social philosophy.
The establishment of a nursery in connection with the Horticul-
tural Department, should be noticed as a valuable source of instruc-
tion to the students. This was a needed supplement to the oral in-
struction in horticulture. Every one, during the Junior year at
least, has "field practice" in all the different branches of fruit
culture. «
The students will not forget that they have lost one pleas-
ant and genial friend this term, Mr. Johnson. Long and faith-
fully did belabor at the college. Always readjT- to take and return
a joke, his team was a favored seat with every one. May success go
with him in his new home.
The editorial would be incomplete were it to fail to speak of the
departure of '78. Faculty and student may well think of that
class with pride. Strong in numbers and vigorous in intellect, it
■* #

maintained its precedence in college life to the end. The college was
ably represented at the Boston University commencement, by Mr.
C. F. Coburn of the graduating class. He was pronounced by com-
petent critics to have been the best speaker of the day. The power
with which he handled his subject, " Tlie Poetry of Science," clearly
proved that the students of an " Agricultural and Mechanical Col-
lege " are not without poetic sentiment. '78 has many good friends
among us yet. Let us remember the injunction of the poet,
" The friends thou hast and their adoption tried,
Grapple to thy soul with hooks of steel."
In losing '78, we gained '82. By reason of the munificence of
the Trustees in remitting tuition, '82 even surpasses her name in
extent of numbers. As a class, they are bracing up under their du-
tiess right manfully, althougli
" His awkward gait, his introverted toes,
Bent knees, round shoulders, and dejected looks.
Procure him many a curse."
The Editors are sorry to send out the Index without the "class
poem." Nature has not bestowed upon us the gift, vouchsafed to
. Homer, of expressing our tlionghts in numbered sentences; neither
do we feel it honorable to plagiarize the original meter of the pre-
ceding poet ; and finally, if we were dishonest enough for that, we
should still be without that grand inspiration of "those arithmetic
signs, among the pines," that led on Seventy-nine to victory.
The editorial pen must now be laid aside and other duties taken
up. If our friends are amused or instructed in looking through
these pages, we shall have received our reward.
Many pleasant hours have been spent together by the Editors in the
preparation. Hours and work, the recollection of which will long
be stowed away in memory. Now we send it forth as a fitting
souvenir of the class of '80.

UE Senior year has flashed upon us like the sudden glare
of a meteor, bringing with it tlie thought that in a few
short months, we shall be launched into the great mass of humanity,
fliaping our destinies from its labyrinth. Its approach we have an-
ticipated, and have been enlarging our resources for the last
three years, to meet its responsibilities. Although we have not gone
as far in our preparations as we might, nevertheless we are ready to
face our tasks and perform our duties without faltering.
Fellow students ! whether there be few or many, our good examples
only, we ask you to follow ; while our bad precepts, we .beseech you,
strive to avoid, and leave the way with at least one less stain for
your successors.
We fully realize, as all must who have spent three years at the
Massachusetts Agricultural College, that farming is thehighestoccu-
pation of man. Commanding little respect as a calling, owing to
the ignorance and lack of opportunities of its followers, agriculture
needs the most zealous and well disciplined men, to raise it to a proper
standard. To this end has our Alma Mater been established, and
her sons are those to whom the plodding throng around us, are look-
ing for help, to lift them from their undeserved abasement.
Our college has achieved so much already, that we may consider it
a complete success ; and triumph will follow triumph, if we work,
remembering that the failures we encounter are but the guides which
will lead us on to a more brilliant victory.
Many more duties devolve upon each individual since our class it
so small. No one will deny but that our class badge ( our lenses ) is

unique as well as useful. We have also departed from the prevailing
custom, by planting class vines instead of trees.
Through the enterprise of our President a large and promising
Freshman class has entered this year. This experiment shows that
there are many young men, desirous of our agricultural education if
it were brought within tlieir reach, by free tuition. We trust that
our Legislature will see wherein it errs and try to amend.
Already we look back upon the greater part of our college days
with pleasure, and as years roll by, that pleasure will ever increase.
A kind remembrance, shall we always cherish for our Faculty. We
bid all a hearty farewell, for soon,
" We leave like those volcanic stones our precious Alraa Mater,
But will keep dropping in again to see the clear old crater. "

f^/^ 'llrtfe EFE.ESHED by our long rest from stud_y, again we enter
%-M. m upon the duties of college life, with new zeal for the work
before us. The routine of duty comes so natural that we scarcely
realize the interruption of vacation, save from its beneficial results,
and the change wrought in our absence. Yes, there are changes,
we do not find everything as wlien we left. This is most noticeable,
first, in our own class. While it was permitted us to welcome to our
ranks one or two new members during the past year, still our
numbers are perceptibly diminished. In vain we look for all the old
familiar faces to reappear, and for a moment, a shade of sadness
steals over the bright horizon of our hopes, as we realize how many
of the little band who first plighted faith and honor in the cause of
Eighty, have fallen by the way. But there is no time for repining.
The necessity of the hour only demands a stronger effort and more
strenuous action on the part of those who are left. It remains for us
to decide whether we shall, or shall not, attain tlie summit of our
ambition, and realize the consummation of the hopes which have
ever been the beacoii of our class, guiding' us on our coarse by its
strong, steady and unceasing light.
Another change, a source of deep regret, is the loss of our former
commandant. We mention this with all honor due him, who now fills
his place, but it would be impossible for us to transfer, at once, the
esteem and regard formed by so long, pleasant and profitable relations
as existed between commandant and cadets, to one ever so worthy of.
the same.
And now we note another change, a source of pleasure rather than
of regret, namely, our new title, the result of our past year's labor.
^J-
THE INDEX.

It gives us great pleasure also to welcome so large a Freshman
class, and we hope, as year by year they are elevated in college ranh,
that the advantages of education and culture, which it is their good
fortune to enjoy, may tend to develop that trait of character, so
pleasing in those on whom the world has bestowed its honors, a just
appreciation of the worth and merits of their fellows ; not disdaining
nor patronizing those who are still below them. And in the spirit of
progress rather than of self glory, we urge them to greater achieve-
ments than we have made, or indeed any preceding class, since we
can point thein to nothing short of perfection.

S we sit down to contribute our little item to your inter-

& — ^i — *
crowd upon us. But lest we weary you, we will refrain from enum-
erating tliose events, which are of interest only to us, and cite those
which are of more general importance.
Of the twenty-four, who tremblingl}' sought admission to our class,
only two have left; three others, dissatisfied with the result of
their labors, have decided to review their studies with Eighty-two.
Success be with jou, brothers, and may your industry enable you to
regain a place in our ranks. Our best wishes go with those, whose
aspirations were too great, and whose brains were too powerful to keep
them within our limits.
After considerable debate we decided upon a cane, as a class em-
blem ; and now, were it not that the greed of the Freshman is greater
than his modesty, you might see several of our number gracefully
swinging the finest canes that ever college boys possessed. No,
"Freshie," you must not be too A^entursorae. Have compassion on
our pockets. They are already only too well filled with the pieces of
jouv walking sticks. We are glad to see so many of you, coming to
fill our places, and we note with pain that one of your number has left
you. We tried hard to make it pleasant for him, packing him off to
bed with' the tenderness of a mamma ; and when one poor fellow
was shedding tears of homesickness, we kindly extinguished his
light, that he might not see himself cry.
Dear college mates, take example from us, and when another class
shall enter, be tender vrith them, remembering that version of the

^^?i^\/^^ITH pleasure, do we present our first contribution to
% V ¥ the Index. Our stay in the M. A. C. has been so
a) ~-a •
short, that we scarcely have been initiated into the common routine
of college life. But the ''greenness," which cliaracterizes all Fresh-
men, and which is greatly magnified by the compound microscopic
lens of a Senior's eye, begins gradually to wear off, and if nothing
serious happens, we expect soon to take up a contribution to procure
wooden tooth-picks for the Senior class.
Our number exceeds eighty. We are mostly men whose thirst for
knowledge brought us here ; rather than the desire to pass away time.
Our muscular power, we think, offsets our "greenness." This was fully
demonstrated in the " Grand E,ush, " where Sophomore refinement
was overpowered by Freshman muscle. Just here we would thank
the Juniors for their instruction in some of the arts of college life.
We appreciate their kindness.
One tiling very noticeable here, is Sophomore bravery, as exhibited
in monopolizing Freshman canes. We admire true courage. It is
an honor to every one. But does manly courage consist in oppress-
ing the weak ? Our most worthy Sophomores seem to have consid-
ered it as such, wlien two or three of tlieir number pounced upon one
poor Freshman, relieving him of his cane, and sawing it into "match-
blocks. " However the class of Eighty-two has a great deal of
charity, and is patiently waiting for the time, when Sophomore
knowledge shall become so extensive, as to enable them to under-
stand that the word "Hero, " has a deeper signification, than "put-
ting Freshmen to bed" and " snagging" canes.
Friendship is very valuable. It strengthens the weak, urges for-
>-^ir

ward the disheartened, brings one student in closer sympathy with
his classmates ; in short, it makes men. Let us furbish this golden
link by which the human race is united. As Freshmen, we have
looked around on tlie vastness of the work before us ; but we cherish
deeply the hope that it may be done well. Often we wish that the
veil of futurity might be swept away and disclose that which is in
store for us ; but kind Providence has forbidden it, and we must wait
for the turning of Fortune's wheel.
We hope and trust that the class of Eighty-two will chisel her
name in tablets of honor, that when she shall lay aside her mantle,
and throw down her mask and foils, other classmen may seize the
tried blades, and perpetuate the glory of our Alma Mater.
Let other classmeu cheer their band.
With armor tried and true,
Let poets chant their praises bland ;
We'll shout for Eighty-two.

Parents should be ver}^ careful about giving their children firearms,
when they start oif for college, although it is the common opinion
that pistols are needed in the collei^e outfit. A serious afi'air happened
here, not long ago, as seen from the above. The little Freshman,
becoming alarmed, discharged his pistol, the ball passing through the
door and the partition of the adjoining room and lodging in a pair of
pants. We might logically prove what the result might have been,
had the owner been in in the aforesaid pants. The result was however,
that on the following night, a big boulder came crashing through
into the room, completely demolishing the door. Damage, $5.00.

^OW when the days of pleasure and sport werfe all uura-
^M_ ^J bered and ended, there were gathered together a goodly-
number of youths, in so much that they chinned among themselves,
saying, "where shall we abide this night," for there was no room in
the building, and it came to pass in those days there went out a
decree from William the Great, that every man should take unto
niraself a chum. jSTow there was at this time living in No. 6 S. C, a
Senior, short of stature but goodly to look upon, to him was meted
out a Freshman, Luke by name, the same did not grow in wisdom
nor did he find grace in the eyes of the Senior. Now when two
weeks had already passed the Senior's wrath was kindled within him
and he bethought himself, saying, " what shall I do that I may rid
myself of this evil ?" This will I do, I will pull up his carpets and
cast his furniture from among mine, yea, I will cause him to take up
his bed and walk, and the thought pleased him so he set himself
to accomplish the task, and labored till the going down of the sun.
Now it so happened that there was at this time living in the room
above a trusty servant of William the Great, David by name, a man
after his own heart, a man of valor and discretion, one in whom his
soul delighted and whom he had made ruler over all things from the
ash pan to the enlightened Senior. Behold while it was yet day
this same David heard the rumor of a great noise coming from be-
low, and stirred himself and went down and stood in the door-way,
and cried with a loud voice, saying, "what do'st thou here, hast thou
not read the decree, that has been decreed, do'st thou not fear him
who can read thy character even by the way thou wearest thy hat,
hast power over all thy future life whether thou shalt prosper in this

world or not, yea verily, who can send the hence by his slightest
breath, dost thou not fear him I say? But why stand ye here idle?
bestir thyself to make amends for the evil thou hast done, but I will
have respect to thine age and position, I will give till the going down
of the morrow's sun to put back all thy Freshman's goods, his furni-
ture, his carpet, yea all that thou has moved, but woe be to thee oh
Senior, if when I come thou shalt not have obeyed my commands
that I commanded thee, it were better for thee if thou hadst never
been. For I swear by the life of William the Great, that if at my
coming, everything be not replaced, be it even a tack, thou and thy
furniture, thy books and everything that that thou hast shall be re-
moved, that this room that knows thee now shall know thee no more
forever." And it came to pass when he had made an end of speak-
ing that the Senior's knees smote one against the other and his tongue
clove to the roof of his mouth, so that what he would say he could
not. Now the next day very early in the morning, he rose up even
while it was yet dark and labored hard and long so that the sweat
stood out upon him, that it might be well with him, when David
should again appear, for he feared both William the Great and his
servant David. Selah.

Especially must this be the case with those who are to becouie

$1,000 was given for the purj;)ose of forming an experimental

follows: $500 to test the feasibility of raising Sorghum and manu-
facturing sugar and syrup from it. $200 to test the nutritive value
of Corn raised in different sections of the Union. $100 to test the
purity and germinating power of various seeds. $100 for making
practical tests with the lycimetre. The remaining $100 to be spent

/A(sm Ijf^ii) EMEMBERING with pleasure our experiences at Camp
■^M % William Knowlton, upon reassembling this Fall, the
p ^ • —
desire was early expressed of renewing the enjoyments of camp life.
Many difficulties seemed to block the way to the fulfillment of this
wish. Daily meetings were held to enkindle enthusiasm, and to
work out some definite plan of operation. After having become
thoroughly in earnest ourselves, we laid siege to the President, to ob-
tain his consent and sanction. Here we encountered many objections.
The people of the state were already looking with displeasure upon
the extent of the Military influence at the college, this would in-
crease their distrust ; an expedition of this kind would sadly interfere
with regular duties, etc., etc.
Wearied out with waiting, we fell asleep, and w^hile we slept our
thoughts were woven into a vivid dream. It seemed as if the Presi-
dent had granted our request and that we were making preparations
for departure.
But it must still be a longtime before we could go, for here were
eighty Freshmen who must be broken into military duties. With
such incentives before them, however,, they worked with alacrit}'.
Special drills were instituted and private rooms were turned into

drill halls, and such progress made that in a few weeks time, we felt
that in the eternal fitness of things, we were ready to go into camp.
As the previous year we had shunned the abodes of men, in pitching
"our camp, Springfield was now selected as our camp ground.
What a bustle and confusion of preparation ! what a host of little
orticles must be looked up and put in readiness ! Then there were
our military trappings, that must be made spic and s^an ; guns,
cartridge boxes and bayonets that must be cleaned and burnished. At
last all was ready, and on the morning of October 10, we fell into
line in the best spirits. The signal gun was fired and the march to
the cars commenced.
At Springfield we pitched camp near a shady grove, just outside
the city limits. Special squads were detailed to clean up the grounds
and mark out the limits of the camp. Soon the snowy tent and the
measured tread of the sentinel indicated to the stranger, that he
was in the presence of a military camp. In such employment the
remainder of the day was spent, until darkness brought his blessings
of rest. But we were in too new and unusual a condition to enjoy
much sleep. What with mounting sentinels, and the attempts to
run the guard, sleep was pretty thoroughly banished from camp tliM
night.
With day-break came the summons to arise and fall in for soup,
around the camp-kettle. This was the only whole day we should be
there. The battallion was formed at 9 A. M., and marched into the
city, where it was reviewed and inspected by the Mayor. The re-
mainder of the day was spent in visiting points of interest in the
city. Especially did we keep our weather-eye open to the object of
the expedition, and strive to increase our stock of military and
scientific knowledge. We believe that in this respect, our success is
full}^ equal to that attending our stay at Camp William Knowl-
ton.
Night once more came, but it was not to be undisturbed. Some
city roughs who had noted our arrival, determined to play a practical
joke upon the Aggies. During the still small hours, the camp was

suddenly awakened, by tlie slirill cry, "Corporal of the guard, post
No. 1." In wild excitement, the men scrambled for their guns and
equipments. A detachment was sent out to look into the origin of
the disturbance. A charge was made on the marauders, who were
making towards our stores, three or four were captured and taken
back to the guard tent, and placed under close watch.
Camp was broken the next morning and we departed with our
captives, but not till the camp had been christened, "Camp Morris."
At the depot, we took leave of our prisoners, with many earnest
wishes that they would not forget us. The train was boarded, and
camp and camp-life were left behind. Happy were we to be once
more on our waj' home. Songs and music, made the car resonant,
and helped to wile away the time. The other passengers might not
have been favorably impressed by our boisterous mirth. Be that as
it may, we believed in "a time to laugh and a time to cry," and that
the present was a suitable occasion to practice the former part of
this maxim. But the moment was fast approaching when the time
"to cry" would be at hand. We were bounding along at a rapid
rate, when just ahead, a freight train came in sight, the distance
was too short for either train to slacken its speed, and with one
dreadful crash, they came together. Music and song ceased, and
thought and action alike died away.
'Twas all a dream. Imagination had been busily at work in the
drowsy body, but this fatal termination of the story could not be
borne in quietness; the limbs once more obeyed the will, and sense
returned. The car was transformed into a bed-room; the collision
'had occurred between a window and a rock. And now with shiver-
ing limbs, the idle dreamer was investigating the damage, and
meditating upon " how vain a delusion " had been preying upon
him.
Suffice it to say, that although our attempts to go on a military
expedition, have failed this Fall, still it is our earnest hope, that

ill the sunny days of the coming Spring, our Commandant will
allow us to realize some of these visions of the night.

($1.00), and in case the amount thus paid into the treasury be in-
sufficient to cover the expenses and liabilities of the current year,
the Executive Committee shall levy an additional tax, to be paid, on
demand, to the Treasurer.

THE FUTURE.
LMA Mater ! dear to the heart of the Alumnus are the
^^ memories associated with the name : never from his mind
can the recollections of his college career be eifaced ; and in living
over again the days passed at the old college home he is led to muse
upon its future, and with interest rekindled, resolve that no lack of
support on his part shall detract from the glory of his loved Alma
Mater.
Students, it is by you that our college is to be judged and her
future will be largely what you make it; the time rapidly approaches
when you will leave her hospitable walls, and take your places in
the niche, long waiting, for men educated in the science of agricul-
ture, able to read understandingly the books of nature. Now is the
time for preparation, neglect it not.
Though financial causes have necessitated a reduction in the corps
of instructors, remember that the institution is in the hands of those
who have your, and its greatest good at heart, and that they feel the
loss as deeply as you, and will surely fill the vacancies in the Facul-
ty at the earliest practicable moment. Whatever may be your per-
sonal estimate of a professor's proficiency in his department., re-
member that he received the instruction he seeks to impart to you,
while you were still under the maternal care ; and may, except in
rare instances, be supposed qualified to teach you. The Faculty
are sowing the seed, if your preparation was sufiScient, and your cul-

tivation is thorough, there are abundant harvests in store for you.
Undergraduates, see to it that you so repay the fostering care of
Alma Mater, that in after years she may not only never be asliamed
of your relationship to her, but may be pi-oud of her sons.
Alumni of the M. A. C, the time will come when the mantles of
the present officers of the college will fall on you ; already two of
your members are connected with the institution as instructors.
None are so well acquainted with the resources, needs .and possibili-
ties of our college as we, and surely, no one can be more interested
in its success; it is therefore not only our right, to be represented on
the Board of Trustees, but the welfare of the college demands it,
the present members, have been surrounded with difficulties almost
insurmountable ; their duties have been arduous, yet'too often thank-
lessly received, in some instances their self sacrificing interest in
the college commands oiir highest praise ; yet the greatest success of
the institution can only be secured through the concerted action of
the Alumni and Trustees ; such action can best be secured through
Alumni representation on the Board. The time has already arrived,
when vacancies should be tilled from our number; bear this fact in
mind, that when called upon to select a guardian for our Alma Mater
the best man, the one having the deepest interest in her success, and
best able to carry his, and our ideas into force, may be chosen.
There are rumors, and we fear not groundless ones, that the Presi-
dent who has presided over the affairs of the Massachusetts Agri-
cultural College from its infancy, is about to leave us; should the
rumors result in facts, where can a successor be found V Alumni this is
a question deeply interesting to you, give it the thought its impor-
tance demands, for on its successful solution may depend the future
weal or woe of our cherished institution.
The Trustees have -generously granted a free scholarship to each
Alumnus, and thus to a certain extent placed the responsibility for the
welfare of our Alma Mater upon us, and events have already
proved the wisdom of this course; nobly have the Alumni responded
to this call for a manifestation of their interest in the college, and
as a result, the class of '82 is nearly double the size of any predeces-
sor. The complaint can uo longer be made, that there is no call for

the institution ; that farmers' sons refuse to enter its halls, or that it
fails in its object, and does not educate farmers. Fully twenty-five
per cent, of its graduates are actively engaged on the farm, while
others are occupied with such kindred pursuits, as teaching agricul-
ture, or editing agricultural papers; and many others will eventually
return to the farm to put into practice the knowledge acquired at the
M. A. C. In view of these facts it is possible that the college may
soon ask the Legislature to place the farmers' institution on a firm
basis, that it may be self-supporting while furnishing free tuition to
the young men of Massachusetts. If such action should be crowned
with success, the Alumni must see that two so important chairs as
those of Veterinary, and Mental Science be reestablished.
" Our College" has experienced botli cloud and sunshine; but we
believe that it has demonstrated its worth, that the public appre-
ciates the work it has accomplished, and recognizes the fact that it
supplies a need long felt, till now never satisfied; that the Massa-
chusetts College of Agriculture is worthy of the old " Bay State."
The maroon and white, the emblem of ''an institution which
teaches young men how to feed themselves, and how to defend them-
selves," must ever wave triumphant.

I ^-D OORS A^D OUT.
A fertilizer, almost entirely solii'ble in water,
free from odor, and as clean as
sng'ar to handle.
It is made expressly for flowers growu in the liouse or garden. It con-
tains nearly the same plant-food as stable dressing, and produces the same
results, without giving off in the room that offensive and unhealthy odor
whidi arises from the application of stable dressing. It produces a
healthy, luxuriant growth, and induces early and generous flowering, and
cannot in any way harm the plants if applied according to directions,
which are very simple, and accompany each package. No lady who de-
lights in flowers, and likes to see them do well and bloom abundantly,
should be without the "Ammoniated Food." A table-spoonful dissolved
iu a gallon of water is a sufficient quantity for twenty ordinary plants like
geraniums, applied once a week for three or four weeks; after that, not
oftener than once a month. Trial packages sent by mail, post paid 25
CENTS. *
